Bookloop by Bookshop.org is powered by Zeercle, a company founded to help make a difference for a more accessible, affordable and durable cultural industry.
We chose Zeercle for their expertise in the second hand book market. Their investment in technology means that they have expert understanding of the value of secondhand books across the wider market.
They only accept books from customers that they have a high confidence in being able to resell. In our partnership, they will only resell these books online on properties not owned by Amazon.
As a result, only 2% of books sold to Zeercle end up not being resold. Zeercle manages the responsible disposal of these books primarily through donations to local charities and with less than 0.5% recycled in an environmentally responsible way.
